Hello there! Just introducing myself!
 
Hello!!
I found this site through a new-found friend who has an account here. Thanks, UntilMOMMI! I haven't looked around as much as I would like, so I intend to keep this short.
I'm 29, married, mother of a very energetic two year old, three dogs, two cats, a roommate who can't seem to get his stuff together, and work full time.
I love people who can 'let their hair down' and have recently discovered the true meaning of loving yourself. I used to weigh 115/125 and at that time I THOUGHT I WAS FAT because I have never had a perfectly flat stomach. Well now I know that I looked AWESOME way back then and some women just despised hearing me complain......I currently weigh in at 190 and I'm 5'2" tall. For some reason no one seems to believe I weigh this much - I think it's because it's all concentrated around my middle and my face and extremities don't show it as much. I know it's there and it really used to get me down. Now I know that this is simply another thing for me to conquer in this life - and by God, I CAN DO THIS!!!!!:carrot:

I want to thank all of you who have the guts to be brutally honest about yourselves and even others. It's because you're there that I am here!:grouphug:

I get the same response when I tell people how much I weigh and I am 5'1 - if they only knew what we go through

Make yourself at home and Good luck to your new healthy lifetstyle

I'm also a shortie (and carry my weight in the middle)! My mom, grandma and friends have told me how I look great just how I am, which is sweet. I am blessed with supportive people around me, but I have NO itentions of staying overweight just because people don't mind my weight. I DO and that is why I know I'm doing this for myself and it's going to work. There's lots of support and accountability on here which I love! I'm so glad I found this site.
